Official title
Phase 0 Study of a Thermal Compression Device for Maintenance of Perioperative Normothermia
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Getting cold (not maintaining normothermia) around surgery (perioperative period) leads to many negative outcomes for patients including increased wound complications, abnormal heart rhythms and increased blood loss. These all lead to increased length of hospital stay and higher requirements for post operative monitoring. These add to around $3500 of extra costs per patient. The investigators aim to study the effects of a warming device, placed around the patient's legs and/or feet, to determine it's safety, efficacy and eventually compare to the current gold standard of a forced air warming blanket. Forced air warming has been associated with the spread of germs over the surgical field. Hence the need for warming equipment that won't do that.
